On Thursday, Mrs. Hunter and Mrs. Kos came to introduce the students in KO to a fun activity of Rainbow Dance. Mr. Jergens joined too. Rainbow Dance is a form of expressive art. It helps students socially and emotionally. It develops the three qualities that are essential for early childhood mental health and learning: Self-Esteem, Self-Regulation, and Social Empathy. The students loved it, and the smiles on their faces show it all! #mphawks #seethestars #seeforyourself
